Anyone ever do this? I realize it will be a massive pain in the ass with how many contacts there are to desolder. My MV-1C CMVS is really picky about the exact angle the cartridge is at otherwise it doesn't want to boot. I've cleaned the contacts on all my games and done the creditcard & T-shirt trick with deoxit and that helps, but it's still pretty picky. Without the original plastic shell over the MV-1C the cartridge can wiggle back and fourth quite a bit in the slot and it feels like every game needs to be nudged to just the right angle.
I've checked solder joints and they all look good, so I think the tension on the contacts is just not where it used to be. My 161-in-1 boots perfectly every time, and requires a fair but more force to insert due to slightly thicker PCBs, which makes me think it's definitely the contact tension.
Anyone know the part number for those edge connectors? they look like something I could just buy from mouser.
